Chapter 511: Martyr's Shrine (plus more for a monthly pass)
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you have something to do, play early, and if you have nothing to do, you will disperse!"
Qin Shi Huang's expression was very relaxed about this, and he even looked at Chen Xu slightly, as if as long as Chen Xu was sitting here, he felt very steady.
The emperor's eyes full of affection Many ministers naturally saw it in their eyes, Meng Yi's face twitched slightly, Feng Qu was light, but Li Si's face was gloomy, and he lowered his head and sighed slightly.
Seeing that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty didn't seem to have any intention of doing something, Qin Shi Huang was about to stand up, but Chen Xu thought for a moment and stood up first and said, "Your Majesty, the minister still has to play!" ”
"Oh, Aiqing, please speak!" Qin Shi Huang sat down again, and his tone was very gentle.
"Your Majesty, this time General Li Xin and General Jiang Hu both led my Great Qin soldiers to a complete victory, the Huns suffered heavy losses, this is an unprecedented victory in my Central Plains, so the minister got Li Shun's battle report yesterday, and arranged for the newspaper to print today's special issue overnight, and when Li Xin and General Jiang Hu returned to the court, many soldiers who have achieved great merit will inevitably accept the reward, but those dead soldiers sleep outside, the bones can not be returned home, and the heroic soul is in a different place, these soldiers are what my Great Qin really needs warriors, In order to let the people of the world and future generations remember their merits, the minister asked His Majesty to build a martyr's shrine, enshrine their spiritual thrones, and accept the worship of all peoples, so as to commemorate their bravery and fearlessness, and guide their souls to return to their homeland to rest! ”
When Chen Xu said this, the entire hall was extremely silent, and after a while, the commander of the military department stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the ministers of Qinghe Marquis agree very much, building the martyrs' shrine and accepting incense to worship will greatly boost the blood and courage of my Great Qin soldiers, and greatly stimulate the enthusiasm of the soldiers to serve the country!" ”
"The minister seconded the proposal!" Another military general in a brocade robe stood up.
"The ministers seconded it!" This time, not only the military generals, but also more than a dozen civil officials stood up.
"Your Majesty, my Great Qin is proud of his military merits, and killing the enemy is considered a meritorious service, but it is not enough to have a reward, but also to have some glory other than a reward, this Martyrs' Shrine is to pay tribute to those heroes and martyrs who shed their blood for Great Qin, and build a Martyrs' Shrine to inspire all the Great Qin soldiers and let them know that even if they die, we still remember their merits, and our children and grandchildren will pass on this incense, and there will still be people who will remember their sacrifices for this country for a hundred years and thousands of years!" Chen Xu's face was serious and serious, and he saluted Qin Shi Huang again.
"Listen to the right side!" Qin Shi Huang's face became very serious at this time.
"The minister is here!" Feng Qujian quickly stood up.
"Order the six departments to choose a place to build the martyr's shrine as soon as possible, and on the day of completion, the spiritual seat of the soldiers who died in the battle of Henan and Hebei will be enshrined in it, for all the people to worship, but in the future, there will be soldiers who died in the battle, and the spiritual positions are all enshrined in it!"
"Your Majesty Shengming!" The Manchu civil and military forces stood up and saluted almost at the same time.
Chen Xu has been thinking about the construction of the Martyrs' Shrine for a long time, and yesterday he received the news of Jiang Hu's victory in Hebei, so he was ready to write a chapter in the newspaper hall, of course, not only to build the Martyrs' Shrine, but also a complete set of military merit medal system, but yesterday was too busy, and ploughed the fields until dawn at night, and was called to the court by the emperor in a daze, and he didn't bring the book he wrote, so he simply took this opportunity to get the matter of the Martyrs' Shrine first, and the current twenty-level military merit award has been very detailed, whether there is a military merit medal is actually not very significant, It's just that Chen Xu feels too cumbersome.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Chen Xu yawned and climbed into his carriage to urge him to hurry back to his house, and then go to bed to lie down for a while while the weather was cool in the morning.
"Choking~" The accompanying guards all drew their big swords and were about to surround the two of them in the middle, and the leader of the guards shouted: "Who dares to stop Qinghe Hou's car!" ”
"Master Hou, the old man begged for each other, please see me!" One of them lifted the hat from his head, revealing a young and handsome face.
Chen Xu heard the voice quite familiar, and quickly asked the guards to disperse to see that it was Jiang Chuxing, the son of Jiang Beiting.
"Why is Brother Jiang here?" Chen Xu got out of the car in surprise.
"Master Hou, my father was detained and imprisoned, Chu Xing was already confined at home with a guilty body, and I sneaked out to see Master Hou today, hoping that Lord Hou could help save my father, Chu Xing is grateful!" Jiang Chuxing went straight to the point and directly said his intentions.
Chen Xu smiled and waved his hand and said: "You can rest assured to go back, I have already dealt with this matter in secret, at most in a day or two, your father Jiang Beiting and uncle Jiang Heng will be released home, and they will also perform their duties again, Jiang Heng will be transferred to other counties as county guards, and your father will be transferred to other counties to serve as county commanders, although they cannot be reinstated, it is not difficult to rise again in time!" ”
"Really?" Jiang Chuxing was very surprised, and knelt directly in front of Chen Xu excitedly, "Jiang Chuxing, thank you for your great kindness!" ”
"Hehe, don't thank you, don't thank you, Brother Jiang, please get up, that day in Qinghe Town, Lord Jiang has the grace of knowing me, this kindness Xu remembers in his heart and dare not forget, now that Lord Jiang is in trouble, Xu will naturally find a way to rescue, not to mention that this time your uncle Jiang Hu has made a great contribution, the emperor is very happy, and it has enabled me to operate from it, you can go back to the house for the time being and wait in peace, things have taken a turn for the better, and at the same time tell your family not to worry!"
"Thank you, Master Hou!" Jiang Chuxing's body trembled slightly, his eyes were red, and he wiped his tears with his sleeve and said: "Half a month ago, there was sudden news that it was a fire in Nanyang Cang and hundreds of thousands of stones of grain were burned, and then a few days ago, there was a sudden great change in the court, my uncle was detained and imprisoned, and the soldiers of the Criminal Department also surrounded our family and did not allow anyone to leave without permission, and said that someone had been arranged to go to Nanyang to detain my father, Chuxing has been staying in Xianyang, everything is confused, my mother was bedridden with convulsions when she heard the news, and the family was completely chaotic, The day before yesterday, the little sister came back from Nanyang alone, I only knew the whole story, Chu Xing didn't dare to disturb the Hou Ye, but when I saw the newspaper early this morning, I learned that my uncle Jiang Hu attacked the Xiongnu royal court in Hebei and killed the Xiongnu Shan Yu, so Chu Xing felt that by virtue of this matter, he begged the Hou Ye to transfer from the middle, maybe he could save his father and uncle......"
After listening to this, Chen Xu nodded and said: "Indeed, if it weren't for the news of General Jiang Hu's victory, I'm afraid that your father and Lord Jiang Heng would not be easy to get rid of the last incident, hehe, but fortunately, I got the news of the good news yesterday, and I communicated with Master Meng of the Supervision Province as soon as possible, yesterday the emperor has made clear the disposal method of your father and uncle, that is, to demote and transfer to other places, you can rest assured to go back, your father and uncle will be released from prison soon!" ”
"Thank you, Master Hou! I'm going back to tell my mother and my family! Jiang Chuxing gave up his hands excitedly and prepared to leave.
"By the way, Brother Jiang, your sister is okay!" Chen Xu remembered the rude and willful Jiang Chuyuelai, when she was in Pheasant County, she not only saw her nakedness, but also splashed herself with water, and then the two of them looked at each other differently, but now they haven't seen each other for more than a year, and there has been such a huge change in the Jiang family, I'm afraid that a pampered little girl who has been pampered since childhood is not easy to bear this kind of blow.
Jiang Chuxing's face was slightly strange and nodded, "Thank you Master Hou for your concern, little sister is well!" ”
"That's good, Ben Hou still has something to do, you can go back quickly!" Chen Xu nodded and climbed back into the carriage and sat down, and then the carriage set off, and under the escort of the guards, it quickly disappeared at the end of the street.
"Little sister, now that you have seen Master Hou, let's go, hurry back and tell my mother and a few aunts the good news!" Jiang Chuxing said to the person with the hat next to him.
The hat was lifted, revealing a slightly thin and beautiful face, with slightly messy hair, a sad face, chapped lips, and two lines of tears kept flowing down in the direction Chen Xu left.
"Alas~" Jiang Chuxing looked at his sister's expression, couldn't help but sigh and shook his head and said: "Little sister, you and Hou Ye have no fate after all, he just married the Shui family and married Princess Qingning, but now that Princess Qingning has died, the emperor will inevitably marry the fifth princess to him, and I heard that he will marry the daughter of Lord Meng, and when his father is released from prison and goes to the border county to perform his duties, he will inevitably take you there, from now on, the mountains and rivers are far away, you don't have to think about it, I knew today, why bother in the first place, alas~"
Stopped and harassed by Jiang Chuxing halfway, Chen Xu found that he didn't feel sleepy anymore when he went home, so he simply sat in the study and took out a ruler and compass to start designing a few coins, but he couldn't calm down, it seemed that there was always a person's shadow dangling in his mind.
Chen Xu threw the compass in his hand on the table and sighed slightly.
Jiang Beiting and Jiang Heng were able to get out of Zhao Zhe's affairs without danger this time, largely because of Jiang Hu's victory, but even if the emperor forgave the sins of the two, they would definitely be relegated to a remote and remote country to serve, as for where to go, Chen Xu naturally didn't know, and it was not easy to mix, after all, this is something that the emperor and the officials need to consider.
But if it is relegated to the bitter cold places in the northwest and northeast, I am afraid that Jiang Chuyue will inevitably suffer with it.
Chen Xu sighed again, then flipped out a map of Daqin, and his eyes suddenly fell on two places marked as Wu County and Pei County.
Because these two places were specially written in red cinnabar when Chen Xu first drew this map, which is particularly obvious.
As soon as I saw these two place names, the characters of Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, two historical giants, suddenly came out of my mind, as if they were standing on the map with thick smoke and flames, waving the weapons in their hands, and commanding thousands of troops and horses to kill Xianyang on the map.
